Abstract: A black/white liquid crystal display (10) contains a nematic liquid crystal having a twist of 270 DEG  between two cell plates. The product of the liquid crystal layer thickness and the anisotropy of the refractive index is approximately 0.38. A pretilt of approximately 15 DEG is present. The polarisation directions (P1, P2) are at an angle  beta  of 45 DEG  to the orientation directions (Mo, Mu). 
<??>Over a very large range of viewing angle, this display has a relatively low dependence on the contrast of the viewing angle, and there is practically no colour displacement at all that depends on the viewing angle. Because of the considerable improvements, when compared with all known cells, in the range of the viewing angle with respect to contrast and colour neutrality, the display is termed an "extended-viewing-angle" display (EVA display). It can be multiplexed to a very high degree.

Abstract: In a combustion chamber (A), preferably of the shape of an annular combustion chamber, a row of premix burners (B, C) of different size is arranged on the inflow side. The large premix burners (B), which are the main burners of the combustion chamber, and the small premix burners (C), which are the pilot burners of the combustion chamber, open into a front wall (10) of the combustion chamber, these premix burners (B, C) being arranged alternately and at a uniform distance from one another. While the main burners (B) open directly into the front wall (10) to the combustion chamber, the pilot burners (C) have on the outflow side of their burner length a precombustion chamber (C1) which extends as far as the front wall (10). In this precombustion chamber (C1), both the evaporation of a liquid fuel and the combustion of liquid or gaseous fuels can be improved considerably with low partial loading of the machine.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods of DNA sequencing including a method for determining the nucleotide base sequence of a DNA molecule, comprising providing the DNA molecule annealed with a primer molecule able to hybridize to the DNA molecule,   incubating the annealed mixture with a DNA polymerase, except reverse transcriptase, in the presence of four different deoxynucleoside triphosphates and a chain terminating agent which terminates DNA synthesis at a specific nucleotide base, the concentration of all four deoxynucleoside triphosphates at the start of said incubating being sufficient to allow DNA synthesis to continue until terminated by said agent. The DNA products of the incubating reaction are separated according to their size, so that at least a part of the nucleotide base sequence of the DNA molecule can be determined. In a furter embodiment the primer may be extended and labelled prior to the incubating reaction.

Abstract: A multiphasic sustained release injectable delivery system is provided, as well as a method for treating humans and other mammals with that multiphasic sustained release system. The multiphasic sustained release system comprises prolonged, controlled delivery of microencapsulated allergen extract comprising allergen extract encapsulated in microcapsules of bioerodible encapsulating polymer, which permits a subtained, multiphasic release of said allergen extract, including (i) a first portion of allergen extract that upon injection is capable of being released from said microcapsules of bioerodible encapsulating polymer in a manner whereby only a relatively small amount of said allergen extract is released during said first phase, whereby initial allergenicity is minimized due to said first portion producing a mild local reaction similar to that normally observed with low doses of conventional allergen administration; and (ii) secondary portions of allergen extract that provide a substantially higher level of allergen extract in doses which could provoke a serious reaction in the patient, but for the prior release of said first portion.

Abstract: Sustained-release oral drug-dosage forms that release drug in solution at a rate controlled by the solubility of the drug are described. The dosage form comprises a tablet or capsule which comprises a plurality of particles of a dispersion of a limited solubility drug in a hydrophilic, water-swellable, crosslinked polymer that maintains its physical integrity over the dosing lifetime but thereafter rapidly dissolves. Once ingested, the particles swell to promote gastric retention and permit the gastric fluid to penetrate the particles, dissolve drug and leach it from the particles, assuring that drug reaches the stomach in the solution state which is less injurious to the stomach than solid-state drug.

Title: Process for transferring designs to a backing
IPC: B41M5/025
Filed: 1990-06-26
Granted: 1993-08-25
Abstract: A transfer sheet is used for transferring an image formed by electrostatic copying to a backing of textile fabric or other porous material. The transfer sheet is composed of a plain paper substrate having no release treatment or coating applied thereto, and a transfer coating of thermoplastic polymeric film material bonded to the substrate. Transfer of the image is accomplished using only the single transfer sheet. The plain paper substrate securely retains the polymeric film coating during electrostatic imprinting and avoids contamination of the copier/printer. The image can be transferred to a textile backing by applying heat of about 160° C. and 200° C. and pressure of about 50 psi for a duration of about 5 to 10 seconds, and results in a high-quality image transfer that leaves the fabric weave open to breathe. The plain paper substrate is removed after image transfer by peeling it away from the backing while still hot.

Abstract: A navigation apparatus and method designed chiefly for the drivers and also for pedestrians when no such instrument as a distance sensor or a bearing sensor is used. Upon receipt of data related to the passage along which one is now traveling, such as signals from transmitters installed along the passage, electromagnetic waves from an artificial satellite, or based on the distance sensor and bearing sensor, or upon receipt of information input by the user, the apparatus displays what would happen if one proceeds the passage without turning right or left or what would happen if one proceeds a predetermined lane. When a target is set, the apparatus displays both the target and the lane to travel, and further displays the passage leading to the target as well as a proper and suitable passage that leads from a major passage to the target. The data of passage are retrieved by attaching group code and common code to the links. <IMAGE>
